About this property
Newly renovated Long Lake Cottage in Bridgton w dock 4 boat. Kayaks/PaddleBoard
- Wake up on Long Lake to spectacular sunrises and the serenading of loons. This newly renovated, charming cottage faces East and sits directly across the water from the village of Harrison. Borrow one of two kayaks or the paddle board and head to Harrison for a meal or ice cream.
This cozy cottage is 800 square feet and includes a balcony overlooking the water and 2 air-conditioned bedrooms, bathroom and laundry room on the lower level. The upper level (where you enter) is an open-floor layout with a sofa and a futon that sleeps two, includes a smart TV and full bathroom. The well-stocked kitchen includes a dishwasher.
Bring or rent a boat and tie it up to the dock for your stay. Looking for an all-day boating adventure? Leave the dock and boat to Frye Island in Sebago Lake through the Songo Lock...one of the last manual locks in the country. Long Lake connects to Brandy Pond, Crooked River, the Lock, and then Sebago Lake and Frye Island. A highlight for any boater in the Lakes Region! Or stay in Long Lake and enjoy 11 miles of lake. Swimming, fishing, boating, kayaking, paddleboarding...so many choices!
Yard and dock is shared with the owners but unless they're heading out on their pontoon boat, you'll have the yard/dock to yourself during your stay.
The town of Bridgton is 3 1/2 miles away and is the quintessential small town with great restaurants, a book store, gift shops, an art gallery, movie theater, grocery store, nail salon, pharmacy and more. And don't miss the drive-in movie theater!
Hawk Mountain overlooking Long Lake is an easy 20 minute hike with gorgeous views, including Mount Washington! Hawk Mountain is a 10 minute drive from the cottage.
The owners live next door and can easily provide support if any issues arise. Don't miss jetting out on your boat and enjoying Long Lake this summer!

Not only is the lake view amazing so is the flower garden. Upon arrival we could see hummingbirds and other songbirds flying past the deck. The house was perfect for our family and the use of the kayaks and paddleboards were a major plus with my kids. The owners go above and beyond for anything we needed and were so very kind. The house is located a few mins away from everything you could need. Tears were shed by us when we had to leave this tranquil vacation.

Great time.
Very clean and welcoming cottage. All the small touches were much appreciated.
Beautiful location.
Enjoyed using the kayaks & paddle boards on the lake. Explored the town and local brewery.
Decent proximity to Pinkham Notch for a planned hike to summit.

A sweet cottage
We thoroughly enjoyed our one-week stay. The cottage was spic and span when we arrived (and we hope not too much worse for wear when we left! ) We could dock our boat right down the hill. Our only disappointment was that Julia was abroad on her own vacation so we didn't cross paths.

The rental was very quaint and peaceful. It was fully stocked and we had everything we needed for a peacefully getaway, nice fluffy towels, appliances, coffee, hot cocoa, A/C, etc. The grounds were beautiful groomed, loved the garden which attracted many butterflies. Great place to nap and the nearby restaurants and shopping were wonderful! We met our host "Julia" who was very kind and assured us if there was anything we needed to contact her.

We had a great week at this rental. Julia was so kind and responsive. Cottage was clean and came with towels and sheets. We were able to dock our boat no problem. There are kayaks and paddleboards for use. We paddled right across the lake and went to the Village Tie up for some great breakfast sandwiches. My family and I had a great time.

Relaxing dock view, Great amenities
Beautiful views and breeze sitting on the dock. Lake has fish (caught a large mouth bass) and lovely loons. Owner is super nice and helpful. She has thought of many great amenities -- 2 kayaks plus toiletries, paper towels, toilet paper, even shampoo, sugar and various salt/seasonings. Great location -- Bridgton is a lovely town, and we kayaked to Harrison several times for ice cream. The one drawback is that there are quite a few homes in close proximity.

Liked: Check-in, communication
Disliked: Cleanliness
The owner Julie was very nice. The property was not exactly what was expected. It was not dirty, but obviously has a moisture problem. The entire cabin smells like mildew. The yard to lake feels like a bog it’s soggy and they are in a drought. There is a dehumidifier in the basement that needed to be emptied daily due to moisture. The view of the lake is blocked by trees and an over grow weedy garden. We left early because the mildew smell was causing our daughter some allergy issues. It was not all bad, but honestly not what we had hoped for. Again the owner was really nice so it’s hard to write a bad review, but want future renters to have appropriate expectations.

Our 2nd Stay Here!!! Love it!
We loved it so much last year we came back for a second stay. This property and location are just perfect. Julia, the owner and host, is so warm and welcoming and genuinely excited to share her beautiful property.
This is a terrific spot to get away from it all and enjoy some peace and quiet, with still plenty to do close by and on property. I cannot recommend this place enough!

Just what we were looking for! We wanted somewhere close to the mountain for skiing, but also where we could ice skate and ice fish. This couldn't have been more perfect. Julia was so kind and accommodating and genuinely wanted us to enjoy our stay. The property was clean and perfectly supplied. We'll be booking again.

Best Family Vacation Ever!
Our family had a wonderful week at Julia's Cosmo's Cottage.
The location and cottage are perfect, and Long Lake is beautiful.
Julia is an amazing and very thoughtful host. She knows exactly what a family needs to enjoy a lake front cottage vacation and provides it all and more.
It was great having her right next door. We chatted with her at least once a day, and it seemed like she was an old friend who we had known for years.
We spent the entire week on the water swimming, paddle boarding, kayaking, and tubing. The huge smiles on our kids faces when they got to go tubing for the first time was priceless.
When our week was over, our kids did not want to leave and told us they want to come back to Julia's cottage every year.
It really was the best family vacation ever. We got to relax and recharge while spending lots of quality time together as a family making memories that will last a lifetime.
We will definitely be back.

My husband and I stayed here with our 2 young adult sons. We absolutely loved everything about this property. Loved taking our little boat across the lake for lunch. Lots of hiking trails in the area to explore. Julia, the owner, is so sweet and helpful. Plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The lake views were just amazing.

Wonderful lake cottage for young kids
This was the most exceptionally maintained rental we’ve ever had. A wonderful cottage in excellent condition, spotlessly clean. Our host had thought out every need for a stay and provided for it.
The property is excellent with a nice yard on the lakeshore, sandy area for kids to swim, large accessible dock and a great fire pit. The host living right next door is a major plus - she is very welcoming and helpful throughout the stay, but still manages to make the rental very private.
The cottage itself is well fitted out and very comfortable. Our family of four also made use of the living area futon as a third bedroom and it worked great. Both nearby towns offer fun for rainy days and the lake is beautiful.
A wonderful place for a week away!

Great weekend on Long Lake
Judy is an amazing host. The house is super clean and had everything- linens, extra towels, first aid kit (which we used when my son got a cut), s’mores kit for the fire pit, the laundry room (kids got wet every chance they got). We rented a boat at Gateway and the dock was great, and the kids just liked swimming around the dock area. Kayaking to ice cream was also so fun. We had great weather and we’re grateful for the A/C at night. Judy pointed us to Restaurants and they were great. She was there when we needed something, but we also had tons of privacy and enjoyed being outside in the yard and sitting on the lake. The yard also looks amazing with new landscaping. Great place to stay!
